Suddenly, a figure flashed at the head of the field over there. When he saw the large army on the Queen Mother's side, he took up his legs and ran deeper into the field. He ran half a foot away as soon as he saw it.
Luo Chang'an knew better, and before everyone could recover, he sternly said: "Who can't run away if you don't come and kneel down when you see the Queen Mother! Hurry and catch her!"
Everyone looked in the direction Luo Changan was looking and saw the figure escaping in a hurry, and couldn't help but be surprised.
The Queen Mother immediately suppressed her expression and said displeasedly: "Why is it that when you see the Ai family, you are like seeing the god of plague and run away?"
All the concubines became angry.
"This person's behavior is extremely suspicious and must be brought in for detailed interrogation."
"Who on earth can be so ungrateful and disrespectful?"
The Queen Mother took Luo Changan's hand and said warmly: "Thanks to this child's quick eyes, otherwise we wouldn't have seen the sneaky guy run away."
Ji Xiang and Aunt Mei looked at each other and smiled. Recently, the Queen Mother has become more and more fond of Luo Changan.
Luo Changan said in a shy and gentle voice: "I can't let others disturb your winter outing."
After a while, two guards came over with a person who looked like a maid of eighteen or nineteen years old.
When they got close, the guard loosened his grip, and the maidservant knelt down on the ground, kowtowing, shaking all over, and speaking intermittently. It was obvious that she was scared to death, "Slave...Slave...
My servants are here to see the Queen Mother and join you, ladies and gentlemen."
The Queen Mother took a step forward and lowered her phoenix eyes, "My maid, please raise your head. The Ai family will ask you something."
The maid then raised her head, her eyes wandering around, but she did not dare to look into the majestic eyes of the Queen Mother, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, may I ask."
"Why did you run away when you saw the Aijia?"
"Slave... I didn't run away after seeing the Queen Mother. I didn't see the Queen Mother." The maid said harshly.
When the Queen Mother heard this, she became angry and flicked her sleeves, "Full of lies!"
Ji Xiang tapped the maid's forehead a few times and said sternly: "You were squatting at the intersection just now. The Queen Mother and the mistresses of the palaces, counting the dozens of mistresses and maids, how can you see if you are not blind?"
What’s the reason for missing? Tell me quickly, what did you do and why did you run away when you saw someone coming?”
The maid hesitated: "Slave...Slave...wuwuwu..."
As he said this, he started to cry, and while crying, he looked at the Queen Mother's expression with his eyes.
Luo Changan stared at the maid indifferently, and then said slowly to the Queen Mother: "The Queen Mother, this imperial land is specially used for growing white radish. It is usually managed by Long Qian. I recognize all the rough men here. This servant in front of me is not
Where are the people in the palace?"
The Queen Mother was startled, "If it's not from the palace, then it's from outside the palace? Could it be that it's from the house of the courtiers who came with me for the winter tour today? Then we need to investigate more carefully."
Aunt Mei looked at the maid's cheek and immediately recognized the person, "Reporting to the Queen Mother, this maid is the personal maid of Song Panyan, the daughter of Prime Minister Song's family, and her name is Zizhu."
"The Aijia remembered it," the Queen Mother heard, and glanced at the maid again, and then remembered something, "In the past half month, the Aijia said that Song Panyan was careless in making friends, and he was with the concubine Xi, who was charming the emperor.
Teach her to come to the imperial field to work and reflect. Since her maid is here, she has also come to work and think about it, right? How to teach a maid to watch people at the intersection? "
The Queen Mother looked around, "Why don't you see Song Panyan?"
Luo Changan said softly without leaving a trace: "It is true that the wife of the right servant came to work. I heard from the rough messengers that she also produced radishes in the radish field. It was a coincidence. Maybe she was working in a certain field and she would be back soon.
Can meet."
The Queen Mother shook her head, "This field is open in all directions. You can see clearly at a glance. She is nowhere to be seen. She is clearly not working."
Luo Changan hesitated: "This... is indeed the case."
The Queen Mother took another step towards Zi Zhu and said, "If you tell the truth why you came here to spy on me, the Ai family will not punish you. If you don't tell the truth, the Ai family will have your legs broken."
After the Queen Mother finished speaking, the two guards pushed the maid to the ground, trying to destroy her legs.
Zi Zhu was immediately frightened and screamed: "Slave, slave! Say anything! Please, don't break slave's legs."
"Speak quickly!" The Queen Mother looked majestic.
The concubine also urged anxiously: "This maid stops talking three times. It really makes people anxious to death. You should say it!"
"My slave said that I don't dare to hide anything anymore." Zi Zhu said calmly: "It was the wife of the right servant who taught me to keep an eye on the intersection. If I see the Queen Mother or other masters coming this way from a distance,
, tell your slave to go back and tell her to go."
The Queen Mother was very unhappy and said: "Why did she teach you to stare at us?"
Zi Zhu was horrified, swallowed her saliva, and did not dare to continue talking.
Luo Changan said coldly: "Why don't you say anything? Do you have to be punished?"
Zi Zhu immediately said in a trembling voice: "Madam said that today the masters in the palace are coming for a winter outing, but she has to do farm work alone, which is really annoying. She refuses to do it and is basking in the sun behind the Carrot Mountain. She.
..She said that old man Yan Feng actually punished her with two months of farm work because she was too lazy to do it. Masters, please don't say it was me who said it, or else my wife will definitely beat me to pieces."
The moment the word "Yan Feng" came out of Zi Zhu's mouth, everyone gasped in shock.
The word "old goods" even makes people break out in a cold sweat!
With a snap, Ji Xiang slapped Zi Zhu on the face, "You can mention the Queen Mother's name in private! You are simply courting death!"
As he said that, Ji Xiang continued to slap Zi Zhu on the face seven or eight times, until Zi Zhu's face became swollen. Zi Zhu held her cheek and bit her lip and shed tears.
The Queen Mother stroked her heart, a cold light flashed in her eyes, she narrowed her phoenix eyes and said: "Jixiang, you go to the back hall to invite the emperor, Song Kui and Murong Jue are coming over, the Ai family wants to ask the Song family if they have something to say, the Ai family wants to see if it is right
The officials of the Song family have greatly deceived the master! They still have eyes for me, the Queen Mother!"
"Slave, you obey!" Ji Xiang immediately went to the back hall and described in detail how the emperor, Prime Minister Song, and the right minister Song Panyan sent people to stare at the Queen Mother, and called the Queen Mother by her name and cursed her as an old woman.
The emperor put the chess pieces on the table and said with a cold face: "Come with me and see, my prime minister and right minister, how your daughter and wife humiliated my mother?"
"I'm scared!!!" Song Kui and Murong Jue immediately changed their expressions and hurriedly got up and followed the emperor out of the study.
Here, the Queen Mother immediately ordered her left and right: "Chang'an, come with me to find Song Panyan and see how crazy she can be!"
